The New Zealand Flag is New Zealand’s national symbol. Its royal blue background represents the blue sea and sky surrounding us, and the stars of the Southern Cross signify our place in the South Pacific Ocean. The Union Flag recognises our historical foundations and that New Zealand was once a British colony and dominion.

Men's football...Japan had an upset 1-0 win over Spain, and Uruguay had to fight hard to come from behind to beat the UAE 2-1....

But Concacaf teams could only draw....Honduras 2-2 with Morocco, and Mexico 0-0 with south Korea.

Gabon and Switzerland also play to a 1-1 draw....

In a game of two halves, Brazil raced to a 3-0 lead over Egypt, before hanging on to win 3-2.

Belarus beat New Zealand, and Britain were held to a draw by Senegal....

You think Mike giving away any of his hard earned tickets!!

I do not live in the UK so I cannot get "lorse in the olympics". It will be a toss up today between the cricket and the olympics - I might have to have two screens going :)
